I admire the simple, humble heart of people, showing as they care about others, not trying to impress anyone or be the center of attention. Especially for its ability to respect others. When I admire someone, I do it by looking at many things, but never at his physical appearance or economic status. In order to admire someone, that person has to have qualities that money cannot buy. Many people loop at the physical appearance, the way we dress, and the material things this person possesses or gives. To me it should not be that way.
Although this person has been through a lot in his life, he has never lost hope and desire to move forward. He does not give up easily, but continues with his modesty and good heart. I had the opportunity to meet him a year ago by the social network, Instagram. Although we are not together physically, we communicate daily either by phone, video, call or text. The person who has earned my admiration is Christopher Gonzalez.

In addition, I respect his courage to manage and cope with life situations, such as helping others and the respect he shows for others. Christopher makes me laugh at my saddest moments. He also changes my mood in minutes and helps me when I feel that I don’t have the strength to continue. We have laughed, cried and had many ups and downs but we have faith in God and he has always been present in our relationship. Christopher is the person who knows me the most right now, and no matter what my faults and my problems are, he has been there for me. He advises me and is my

Freedom is the ability to express one's beliefs, wishes, desires, and so on. When people think freedom, they may think of the West being a major symbol of it. However, that is not necessarily the case in several instances. Freedom should be the ability to walk freely, as Chief Joseph described. The unfairness towards the Chinese, Native Americans, and the Hispanic Americans counteracts the idea of the West symbolizing freedom.
As American we often perceive beauty , clothing style , and appearance as an important factor of wealth , social status , and

Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna was born in Jalapa, Veracruz Mexico, on February 21, 1794. He belongs to a “criollo” middle class family. His parents were from Spain. He was a Mexican politician and military leader who was President of Mexico eleven times from 1833 to 1855. He was president officially six times, and unofficially five more. He was also a disastrous president of Mexico because he lost Texas and much more of the current American west in the United States. However, by far he was an important figure of his generation in the Mexican history. Many people love him during his first years of president, and he was remembered for two major conflicts, the Battle of the Alamo in 1836 during the Texas Revolution, and as a restored Mexican leader during the Mexican-American War in 1847 (tshaonline.org).

The novel Into The Wild is a beautifully written novel by jon krakauer about the adventure of a young man named chris mccandless. The title is from the final letter that he wrote to wayne westerberg before he left from society to be free. As a whole the book is a beautiful story about his emotions and adventures across the country. It is an example of a man achieving true freedom through hard emotional turmoil. The fact that it actually happened also adds a sense of sympathy with the man chris mccandless. In the novel Into The Wild by Jon Krakauer demonstrates Chris Mccandless achieving his freedom.
Epigraphs serve to lead into the core of the chapter and text, as well as connect the reader's experiences to the text. John Krakauer, the author of Into the Wild, craftily selects these epigraphs, and uses techniques of fiction to create an appealing story and characterize Chris McCandless as a latter-day transcendentalist, counterculture rebel, and hero. By doing so, Krakauer explains and defends Mccandless’ actions from criticism, therefore transforming a man who some think of as suicidal into a character whose story is exceptional. Krakauer's use of Mccandless’ highlighted portion from Henry David Thoreau's’ Walden as an epigraph not only draws parallels to Mccandless’ life, but rather explains Mccandless’ condemnation of materialism and his rejection of the opulence built around his father's lies.

Be it in the professional or the personal life, a man / woman needs to have a good personality to climb that ladder of success.
